The option of home voting has gained popularity among the electorate in Udaipur, with a significant number of 3815 voters choosing this method. To efficiently manage this, dedicated polling teams have been organized, totaling 82 teams across 8 assembly constituencies. 

In preparation for the upcoming home voting, a crucial final training session for the polling teams transpired on Tuesday morning. The venue for this training was the Government Fatah Higher Secondary School, where teams received comprehensive guidance on the procedures and protocols associated with home voting. This initiative aims to ensure a smooth and well-informed voting experience for those who have opted for the convenience of voting from home.

Voters exhibited significant enthusiasm towards the concept of home voting. The polling teams, accompanied by micro observers, BLOs (Booth Level Officers), and booth agents representing candidates, conducted the voting process with utmost transparency. They visited the homes of identified voters and facilitated the voting procedure with diligence.

A notable aspect of this initiative was the accommodation made for voters who faced difficulty getting up from their beds. In such cases, the voting process was seamlessly carried out directly on the bed, ensuring accessibility for all eligible individuals.

This innovative approach to home voting was met with appreciation from voters and their families, who expressed their joy and gratitude towards the Election Commission of India. Witnessing such arrangements for the first time left a positive impact, showcasing a commitment to inclusivity and convenience in the electoral process.
